Had an awesome time at the Carnival in Luton earlier today. Loads of colours and happy people as always and the weather just about managed to hold out for us

Aldenham Country Park
Aldenham Country Park

We visited Aldenham Country Park near Elstree this weekend. We were going for a picnic but I also wanted to be sneaky and scout the location for a fast approaching pre-wedding photo shoot.

Shakespeare's House
Shakespeare’s House

Rance's Rockin' Chair Band
Rance’s Rockin’ Chair Band

I was massively impressed with how awesome they were. They played a fantastic version of “I wanna be like you” from “The Jungle Book” I found a spare moment between shooting and asked them if they would like a couple of shots out on the balcony and this was the result…

John - Smile
John – Smile

Another shot from inside on a dark evening this shot was taken as ISO 5000, you can see the noise/grain but I’ve found that with the 5DII as long as the quality of light is good the amount isn’t so important.
